they can update so slow as they want, i bought arma 3 this weekend and playing breaking point. gotta say its gooooooooOOOOOOdddd :thumbsup:

Yeah sure that means more weapons, and more things to be crafted but make them rare. night goggles would be fucking amazing also !

what is wrong ? I have a .357 magnum + speedloader and a sks + 10 clip loader and i can't to seem to reload these guns by pressing R, i need to manually take the clip/speedloader out of the gun and drag it into my inventory and then empty + put ammo in it, wich is very annoying + not handy in combat situations. In the past i never had problems with reloading my guns in dayz standalone, and i even set an extra key to reload to see if it worked then, but no. anyone same problem or do i need to do something ?? and yes i played on experimental servers today as i do sometimes maybe something went wrong there lol posted some screens with this situation! ps: even with speedloader or clip that is not full, i cannot even reload then cause i see on this pictures both clips are full but even when not full still not possible to reload.

thanks guys, yes the clip/speedloader went into inventory makes perfect sense now ! guess i will be searching another speedloader then ;-)

Short story: yesterday i was fully geared, a guy who was following me and started shooting i shot in the head, died few minutes later cause i felt down a outside ladder at a hospital (those ladders, the ones from the outside wall are bugged at cherno). Spawned somewhere else near the factory i think (i was on a full server) some guys where shooting me from the forrest the second i spawned so no hero's there but more like bandits with no sense for gaming. Spawned again somewhere near a broken ship, i did a full search on the ship and food some food i went true the forrest more up north (beach with rocks, away from the red containers) of the ship and then i saw a town after running 10 minutes (followed the road i came across), that town had a police station and nice loot buildings and allot of garages, police cars etc. The town had a name that started with Yep or something looked it up @ http://dayzdb.com/map/chernarusplus but could not find it. So after clearing this town i had finally a backpack and some water and food, some ammo for all guns but not for sks and a empty SKS on the shoulder, then i followed the road even further, kept on running a while i saw garages (allot) sometimes 10 in a row, but they all had crap in it like 3 times a flashlight for a pistol (next to each other) a construction helmet, other crap and some food yammie. So the thing is: yes i am lost i ran for 30 min on a road that i have no clue where i am running to, i think i am somewhere up north/east but i have enough food and water to run a few kilometers more, also passed 2 farmer grey houses with a weird looking grey sphear on top of a grey pole (so if anyone has a clue). sorry but not screenshot maybe i had to take a few next time i get lost, so if anyone knows where i am would be great! The things that annoy me the most that i found so many garage's (unopend/untouched i presumme) and not even a compass that would help me allot, also i feel yet again like i am running the ironmen, dont get me wrong i understand this game is also travelling and maybe its my stupid fault i don't know the more north and east side of the map already good but still a compass instead of all the crap would be amazing, maybe in the future a vehicle of some kind. Loots needs to spawn more intelligent if u ask me, and i hope someone reply's in this topic: been there, done that and i agree with a similar story.

Yes i did a quick right and went to open fields, ended up @ nort airfield wich i knew already: quicky geared up @ military base and went from town to town afterwards. And yes i found 3 compasses in the same firestation there also, but i just needed one. Yes @ grislyatoms : if you have been heading North and the terrain trends upwards, you can return South to by going downhill, this i realised also and this is a very handy tip for the ones who will get lost also !

i understand this guy his frustration, i sure do ! (fact) I never played the mod, i did not even know the difference between the mod & the standalone a few weeks ago when i asked on steam about dayz to my friends (fact). after a couple of week dayz standalone play, yes i think this game can be big hopefully as big as the mod (baricades, nightvision googles, vehicles, repairing vehicles) and maybe even more but time will tell, i only had one update so far in dayz wich is the last one, but i hope vehicles will come soon and not just a vehicle but also maybe repair or steal ;) or something else in a side mission. I also hope other zombie games will come out and so there is more competition between developers so the costumer always wins. Dayz has all the time they need for developing new things/items, but if another game seems like more fun i will play that game. Dayz does not sets my time for having maximum fun when online gaming, they only set there gears for updates. Dayz is this state meaning gear up and interact with other players meaning killing or helping will get bored also the next weeks

sounds is not so good at the moment, u running in open field or sitting behind a tree and u hear: zombie sounds, ammo reload sound, eating sound and not a person near u or zombie i have a decent sound card in my pc to lisen to sounds in game not to be fooled by the game, cause u lose your egde when everytime u are sitting/running u hear sounds and u go like player or sound bug ... very annoying to say decent. i am surely as a new player (couple of weeks) not the only one who complains about this.

thanks ! i need to asap get my ass down to the south then ;) now i just need to find out where the south is offcourse. I think u mean gvozdno on dayz map chernarus, so yay i assume i could be lost somewhere there makes perfect lost sense.

Yesterday me and some dutch friends where minding our own business in electro and suddenly a guy runs in towards us so we shoot him down, he had also unlimited ammo !! like wtf, friends where saying this was a hacker. see https://www.dropbox.com/s/q8n0hv8e04rzc8r/hackerclip.jpg I dont know if the server had battleye cause i followed a friend trough stream who was already ingame on a good ping server, but i sure hope hackers don't take over dayz and bans are giving out to those who cheat!

On a high pop server there is hardly loot to be found in allot of buildings, yes i understand on high pop servers : more people + more dead's + more people running arround to search loot. So basically if u want to be good on food/ammo/clothing u first need to search the loot on lower populated servers and when u have more then enough u can finally join a full server and u don't have to worry about finding food/etc fast. But the thing is i enjoy playing on high pop servers but unfortunately hardy loot to be found, and when u find a construction building 2 bandit campers are on it camping for example near berezino, i understand on a high pop server u can't expect loot to be found like in every building every minute but still one can of food would be better then a badly damaged compass. what are your thought's about this ? and how does loot respawn in dayz at this moment ( high pop vs low pop )

yesterday wen i ran to berezino i faced the sun in the sky all the way but i had sunglasses on my face, so i realised if a bandit showed up infront of me i would have disadvantage cause i would need to get in a defence position not only from the bandit but also from the sun. So i was wondering does sunglasses add something in dayz at this moment ? or is it just a cool face gimmick.

lmao @ the pic from OBSERVER

thanks for understanding, and what is your source that this spawn system of zombies is prowisory ? ;) greets rigz

can u read ? who said anything about cod ? i only say if u kill a zombie they should not dissapear from thin air arround u, this needs to be more realistic also no ? no problem with allot of zombies and no problem with they are harder to fight but i have a problem when u shoot one zombie in a openfield and no other zombie is arround they suddently rise from thin air arround u and keep on comming. i love to sneak into a town without attracting zombies, the thing i dont like when clearing a whole street to finally come at a well to fill up my water bottle's suddently when drinking u have to worry about a zombie in a second while filling up a bottle.

welcome to dayz ! enjoy the looting

title says it all :(

Hi all, I've been playing 2 weeks now this game after playing another zombie game wich is called nether since i did not like the way they where going with there patches i needed to find a decent other game and bought dayz after looking different youtube video's (mr blackout, frankie, etc). First time i had a gun (sks) and some decent prestine ammount of ammo when i somehow fell of a building but i am sure i clicked the go climb down arrow in a good way but oke the ground and my head on that said i was dead. Since i am new to this game i always try to go on low pop servers (max 15 players) with a good ping so i dont have to worry to much about other players and i can learn the towns, the way zombie moves, wich building contains guns, medics, food, water and other, so far this worked out for me since i now have a decent gun and decent ammo + scope + pistol once more: for new players when lost just go in steam browser to http://dayzdb.com/map/chernarusplus to see where u are, and if u really lost like i was a couple of times just keep following a road (the bigger the better) and eventually u will come in a town. Since the last patch (this was my first update patch) i noticed sometimes u hear sounds of reloading, eating or zombies but when u look arround u can't see any person or zombie near u so that is very strange, i read on this forum allot of people have been in the same situation and hopefully this will get fixed with the next update, also i dont like the fact zombies can run trough walls but they cant run down a hill. a few questions: - i like to see buildings from a far distance in a good condition meaning no blurry buildings, can someone tell me wich setting i need to set higher to see ? cause i feel sometimes i see them good and on another server there blurry again from a big distance (strange), and maybe i overlook an option or a setting or something else - is dayz releasing a patch every month ? or how many patches have there been so far ? do u guys like the way the game is comming togheter and where its heading to ? is it oke to say the dayz mod is an example for the dayz standalone ? or are the both heading up a different way ? - whats your thoughts about zombies who can run trough walls and scare the shit out of u when u are looting and suddently u have company in the room :D - some servers with decent ping for me have in the title: clan only, dont join, join = delete all: is this really true ? or do they just want a server with friends but why dont set a private key on it then cause i see sometimes servers with a key to login, wich would be nice a private server cause u can loot all u want and u dont have to be afraid to die due to other players with bad intentions.

thanks for the intel muddyracoon, jup its not hard for a company to delete those server the title says it all no ? ;-)

i can confirm that if steam does not runs u cant startup dayz or every other game u bought trough steam, but good u confirmed once ingame u stay ingame without having the steam problems.

steam back up (belgium), what happens when steam goes offline when u are in dayz ? or once dayz is runned steam can crash without dayz crashing..

i agree with what u said: zombies can be mean and faster but the respawn like that is way to much, this is not hitman where u need to sneak into every building so u are invisible to zombies

edit: tried 2 severs that said: private do not join, kick => got kicked twice by a server admin

what gear did u had looted ? and sorry to hear u got shot full geared without shooting one single shot back, thats the worst way to go down i think.
